Pure stupidity, it's time to shut the BBC down.
Look, the SNP aren't getting on a national debate about issues mostly not relevant to them and hijacking it. The getting on is what would be pure stupidity. I and most British people outside Scotland don't care what the SNP have to say about UK wide issues, as we can't vote for them. However virtually everyone can vote UKIP in 2015 and most people will have the chance to vote Green. The SNP just aren't that important on a national level and trying to shoehorn them in as equal or more important to two fully national parties to the nation as a whole in a general election is silly.
As happened last time the proper place for them is in regional debates with the Scottish leaders of the parties standing in Scotland.
We'll see what you say after the election when Milliband is forced into a coalition with them and PC.
